your multicooker has finished its preheat cycle, open the lid and carefully place the prepared ingredients into the cooking pot and close the lid.
If you don't want to use the preheat cycle, or your recipe doesn't call for it, then place the ingredients into the cooking pot at the beginning of the
cooking cycle.

THE BENEFITS OF SLOW COOKING
Health: The gentle cooking action reduces damage to vitamins and retains more of the nutrients and flavours.
Economy: Long, slow cooking can tenderise the cheaper, tougher cuts of meat, and uses about a quarter of the power of the small ring on the
average hob.
Convenience: Prepare the ingredients the night before, put them in the slow cooker before you leave, and have a delicious meal waiting for you
when you get home.

GENERAL TIPS
Keep in mind that ingredients used straight from the fridge can increase the cooking time.
Try not to open the lid unnecessarily during cooking. A lot of heat can escape when you do this and it can take your multi cooker a long time to
recover.
When testing a dish to see if it's cooked, don't forget that root vegetables usually take longer to cook.
Thaw frozen food completely before adding it to the cooking pot.
Pre-browning meat beforehand is not strictly necessary but can help seal in the moisture and add depth to the flavour. Use your multi cooker's sear
function to brown meat.
Store ingredients prepared beforehand (e.g. the night before) in containers in the fridge. Don't put the multi cooker or the cooking pot into the
fridge.
When cooking with rice, use at least 150ml (¼ pt) of cooking liquid for each 100g (4 oz) of rice.
Pasta isn't suitable for slow cooking, it becomes too soft. If your recipe requires pasta, it should be pre-cooked and then stirred in 30-40 minutes
before the end of the cooking time.
After all the ingredients are put into the cooking pot, it shouldn't be more than about three quarters full. If you overfill, it may spit hot liquid or
overflow during use.
If the finished dish is too liquid, it can be thickened using a little cornflour, arrowroot, etc. For each 250-300 ml of liquid, mix together 2 tbsp of
cornflour with enough water to form a thin paste. Add the paste to the dish approx. 30-45 minutes before the end of cooking. Alternatively, stir in
ready-made gravy granules following the manufacturer's instructions.
